Turkey Talk

Can you believe it is two weeks from Thanksgiving?! I love Thanksgiving, it is one of my favorite times of year. Now when I married my husband, Thanksgiving took on a whole new meaning. When you are the third generation of a family owned and operated butcher shop, the holiday season is a bit busy (a bit busy is code for pure craziness). He and his family will be working 12-15 hours days until the end of December. But we will take pure craziness over slow business any day. My mother-in-law often tells the story of how they had enchiladas one year for Thanksgiving because her turkey had been sold to a customer. I have always panicked a bit that the same would happen at our house. The closer it gets to the big day the more I start asking my husband if our turkey is well hidden in the back. You think I am joking...:)

Anyway, last year I wrote two blog posts regarding turkey tips. I managed to get my husband to answer a few turkey related questions. I thought I would post the links in case you missed it last year. Click the link below the image to read each blog post.
